I recently moved to japan was just introduced to etegami last month. I really love this image. My husband and I were just discussing how etegami would be a wonderful way to inform our families in the States to be expecting a new family member this year. Beautiful work!
Margie is right: only you could make a womb look this lovely and only a piece by you could feature curly lines + pink + blue and still look this elegant.
Etegami (e= "picture"; tegami= "letter/message") are simple drawings accompanied by a few apt words. They are usually done on postcards so that they can be easily mailed off to one's friends. Though etegami has few hard-and-fast rules, traditional tools and materials include writing brushes, sumi ink, blocks of water-soluble, mineral-based pigments called gansai, and washi postcards that have varying degrees of "bleed." They often depict some ordinary item from everyday life, especially items that bring a particular season to mind.
